Strange Scheduling

Confused as to why there's no new Justice League Action?

Don't worry, you're not the only one! I tried explaining this on Twitter but 140 characters makes it hard to make sense. Here I will try to explain it a little better:

Regularly, JLA features self contained stories so that more characters can be seen. The first four episodes, however, contain an overarching story with the brothers Djinn, Black Adam, and the wizard Shazam. Because of this, Cartoon Network aired all four episodes together as an hour long premiere special on Friday, 12/16/16. Since then, the show has moved to Saturday mornings (fitting since it reminds many older fans of the Super Friends cartoon) beginning on 12/24/16. Rather than airing episode five, they aired episode one again however they aired it alone. This past Saturday (12/31/16) they aired episode two but once again, separately.

Thus, it can be assumed that CN will remain airing each episode of the premiere separately until we get to episode five. It is currently unknown whether or not two new episodes will be shown or one new and on repeat, but we will find out on 1/21/17 when "Follow That Space Cab" premieres.

I hope that helped to answer any questions you had about the scheduling, but if not let me know! If you have any other questions I can try to answer, let me know here or on Twitter. BTW, Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all have a prosperous year :)
